DIY : Vista ---> XP

#1 Post by apoon204 » Mon Oct 29, 2007 9:14 pm

I want to downgrade my T61p from Vista to Windows XP Professional by myself.

Are there any people tried that by your own? I mean fresh install the XP and download drivers for it?

Are there any potential problem? Anything need to pay attention?

Thanks~

a quick search for "XP guide" pulled up this thread; Guide : Installing Windows XP on T60/T61

search is your friend. ;)

Lenovo has also released installation instructions, it's for Thinkpad T60/p but you'll get an idea about the proceeding:

Installation instructions for Windows XP - ThinkPad T60, T60p.
